Application of a recombinant GH10 endoxylanase from Thermoascus aurantiacus for xylooligosaccharide production from sugarcane bagasse and probiotic bacterial growth
(Journal of Biotechnology, 2022) [Artigo]Xylooligosaccharides (XOs) are a promising class of prebiotics capable of selectively stimulating the growth of the beneficial intestinal microbiota against intestinal pathogens. They can be obtained from xylan present in ... -
Transposable element expression and regulation profile in gonads of interspecific hybrids of drosophila arizonae and drosophila mojavensis wrigleyi
(Cells, 2021) [Artigo]Interspecific hybridization may lead to sterility and/or inviability through differential expression of genes and transposable elements (TEs). In Drosophila, studies have reported massive TE mobilization in hybrids from ... -
Gestational and lactational xenoestrogen exposure disrupts morphology and inflammatory aspects in mammary gland of gerbil mothers during involution
(Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2022) [Artigo]In the mammary gland (MG), the developmental window for gestational/lactational differentiation and growth is highly vulnerable to hormonal disruption. Here we describe that the MG involution process in female gerbil mothers ... -
Protective effects of piperlongumin in the prevention of inflammatory damage caused by pulmonary exposure to benzopyrene carcinogen
(International Immunopharmacology, 2021) [Artigo]Benzopyrene is one of the main polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with carcinogenic capacity. Research has shown that anti-inflammatory drugs can reduce the incidence of lung cancer. In this scenario, we highlight piperlongumin ... -
Mammary carcinoma in aged gerbil mothers after endocrine disruption in pregnancy and lactation
(Endocrine-related cancer, 2021) [Artigo]Compounds that trigger breast cancer onset and establishment are of great interest in biological research. Endocrine disruptors are relevant because they initiate carcinogenesis by changing endocrine pathways. Bisphenol A ... -
Functional properties and potential application of ethanol tolerant β-glucosidases from Pichia ofunaensis and Trichosporon multisporum yeasts
(3 Biotech, 2021) [Artigo]β-Glucosidases have been extensively investigated to integrate the enzyme complex for cellulose fiber saccharification and for improving the aroma of wine. To produce these enzymes, greater attention has been given to ... -
Hormone receptor expression in aging mammary tissue and carcinoma from a rodent model after xenoestrogen disruption
(Life Sciences, 2021) [Artigo]Aims: Hormone receptors are the main markers applied for prognosis of breast cancer subtypes. Among modulators, exogenous chemical agents known as endocrine disruptors interact with certain receptors, triggering molecular ... -
Annexin A1 Mimetic Peptide Ac2-26 Modulates the Function of Murine Colonic and Human Mast Cells
(Frontiers in Immunology, 2021) [Artigo]Mast cells (MCs) are main effector cells in allergic inflammation and after activation, they release stored (histamine, heparin, proteases) and newly synthesized (lipid mediators and cytokines) substances. In the ... -
Recent advances in SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein and RBD mutations comparison between new variants Alpha (B.1.1.7, United Kingdom), Beta (B.1.351, South Africa), Gamma (P.1, Brazil) and Delta (B.1.617.2, India)
(Journal of Virus Eradication, 2021) [Artigo]New variants of SARS-CoV-2 Alpha (B.1.1.7); Beta (B.1.351) Gamma (P.1) and Delta (B.1.617.2) quickly spread in the UK, South Africa, Brazil and India, respectively. To address whether mutations in SARS-CoV-2 RBD spike ... -
Curcumin-cinnamaldehyde hybrids as antiproliferative agents against women’s cancer cells
(Medicinal Chemistry Research, 2021) [Artigo]Curcumin and cinnamaldehyde are natural products whose antineoplastic activity has been well explored in biological evaluations. However, their poor chemical stability under physiological conditions has been an obstacle ... -
Inflammatory repercussions in female steroid responsive glands after perinatal exposure to bisphenol A and 17-β estradiol
(Cell Biology International, 2021) [Artigo]The mammary gland (MG) and female prostate are plastic reproductive organs which are highly responsive to hormones. Thus, endocrine disruptors, such as bisphenol A (BPA) and exogenous estrogens, negatively affect glandular ... -
Case study of two post vaccination SARS-CoV-2 infections with P1 variants in coronavac vaccinees in Brazil
(Viruses, 2021) [Artigo]The rapid development of efficacious and safe vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been instrumental in mitigating the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). ... -
Oxidative stress and sickle cell disease
(Reactive Oxygen Species in Biology and Human Health, 2017) [Capítulo de livro]Sickle cell disease (SCD) embraces a group of genetic hemolytic disorders associated with high morbidity and mortality. SCD is characterized by a complex pathophysiology initiated by hemoglobin S (HbS) polymerization that ... -
Detection of hepatitis C virus resistant mutants in the era of direct acting antivirals
(American Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014) [Artigo]Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infects millions of people and represents an important public health problem in different regions of the world. Drug resistance is a major challenge for HCV-infection related control. Importantly, ... -
